I am not usually interested in Maybelline at all but their Asia-exclusive line Angelfit somehow attracts me and the Brighten Up Blush was really cheap on Sasa so I got the one in Wooden Rose anyway.The blush comes in a clear and pink plastic case with a tiny cheek brush enclosed. The brush isn´t the best but neither the worst I ever saw in a blush compact (that award goes to Covergirl!!). The case looks a bit flimsy but is actually a bit bulky and relatively sturdy in my opinion. The texture is actually excellent. It´s a finely milled silky but not overly soft powder with very fine shimmer giving a glowy and healthy finish. This blush is sheerly pigmented but it shows up with just a few layers when using my MAC blush brush. Wooden Rose is a very natural pink-beige shade which can be combined with about 90% of my lipsticks and lipgloss stash. It´s such a wonderfully versatile shade I like to wear it a lot these days.I got this from Sasa for around US$6, the blush is made in China.

Rating 5/5

i love tea . do u enjoy drinking tea , if so what kind ? i also love 100 percent pure line u should try it ! as well as heavenly naturals mineral makeup on etsy and she makes custom orders too .today was Indian Independence day as well .

Could this giveaway actually be the one that I'll win? XDI have two questions for you Kathy: what eyeshadow primer are you using right now, and do you know of any product that fills in the lips' vertical lines?

I would absolutely love to try out this blush! I've been addicted to Asian cosmetics since my first visit to Japan! I am an obsessive follower of your blog and have actually tried out many items you have reviewed! My favorite so far is the Shiseido Integrate Gracy Creamy Foundation!! It's fabulous :)

My follower name is "facethevalley"! I love your blog, and that blush looks so pretty...I wish they'd stop doing exclusive products to certain areas, why not just release everything everywhere? (Well, I guess it would be more expensive for them...but still!)my email is ladyisla@gmail.com

That blush is beautiful! I know this is far fetched but if you ever have time would you post a picture of how it looks like worn? Only because sometimes colors look pretty in pictures but never end up looking good on me. =(Email:mallowwww@gmail.com

Hi Kathi, thanks for your reviews, I always enjoy reading them and the lovely pictures, they have created lots of lemmings, especially the beigy pink lip colors which are my favourite :) I've seen those angelfit blushes but haven't tried them out yet. Would love to win one :)
